CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Quarterly Report") includes statements that express the Company’s opinions, expectations, hopes, beliefs, plans, intentions, objectives, strategies, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results of operations or financial condition and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places throughout this Quarterly Report and include statements regarding the Company's intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, the launch of Black Rifle Energy™, the Company's financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies, future market conditions and developments in the capital and credit markets and expected future financial performance, as well as any information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of the Company. Such forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this Quarterly Report and management's expectations, beliefs and forecasts concerning future events impacting the Company. Factors that may cause such forward-looking statements to differ from actual results include, but are not limited to:

Competition and our ability to grow and manage growth sustainably and retain our key employees;
Failure to achieve sustained profitability;
Negative publicity affecting our brand and reputation, or the reputation of key employees;
Failure to manage our debt obligations;
Failure to effectively launch new products, including Black Rifle Energy™;
Failure to effectively make use of assets received under bartering transactions;
Failure by us to maintain our message as a supportive member of the Veteran and military communities and any other factors which may negatively affect the perception of our brand;
Our limited operating history, which may make it difficult to successfully execute our strategic initiatives and accurately evaluate future risks and challenges;
Failed marketing campaigns, which may cause us to incur costs without attracting new customers or realizing higher revenue;

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands, except unit/share and per unit/share amounts)
(unaudited)

1.Organization and Nature of Business

BRC Inc., a Delaware public benefit corporation ("BRC Inc."), previously entered into a Business Combination Agreement, dated as of November 2, 2021, as amended by the First Amendment to Business Combination Agreement, dated as of January 4, 2022 (the "First Amendment" and the Business Combination Agreement as so amended, the "Business Combination Agreement"), each by and among BRC Inc., SilverBox Engaged Merger Corp I, a Delaware corporation ("SilverBox"), Authentic Brands LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Authentic Brands"), and certain other parties thereto. On February 9, 2022, as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, a series of transactions (the "Business Combination") were completed for an estimated value of $1,839,815 as a result of which Authentic Brands became a subsidiary of BRC Inc., with BRC Inc. acting as the sole managing member thereof as a public benefit corporation.

BRC Inc. conducts substantially all of its business through its solely managed subsidiary, Authentic Brands, and Authentic Brands' subsidiaries, all of which are consolidated in these financial statements. Authentic Brands, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, purchases, roasts, and sells high quality coffee, coffee accessories, and branded apparel through its online channels and business networks. Authentic Brands also develops and promotes online content for the purpose of growing its brands, which include Black Rifle Coffee Company ("BRCC").

Unless the context indicates otherwise, references to "the Company," "we," "us" and "our" refers to BRC Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries following the closing of the Business Combination.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect the financial position and operating results of the Company including its wholly-owned subsidiaries. These financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the operating results for the interim periods presented. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization transaction between entities under common control, whereas Authentic Brands was considered the accounting acquirer and predecessor entity. The Business Combination was reflected as the equivalent of Authentic Brands issuing stock for the net assets of SilverBox, accompanied by a recapitalization with no incremental goodwill or intangible assets recognized.

Authentic Brands was determined to be the predecessor entity to the Business Combination based on a number of considerations, including:

Authentic Brands former management making up the majority of the management team of BRC Inc.;
Authentic Brands former management nominating or representing the majority of BRC Inc.'s board of directors;
Authentic Brands representing the majority of the continuing operations of BRC Inc.; and
The chief executive officer of Authentic Brands then having voting control of the combined company.

Table of Contents
Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent liabilities in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include but are not limited to estimated losses on accounts receivable, inventory reserves, undiscounted future cash flows and the fair value of assets or asset groups for the purpose of assessing impairment of long-lived assets, liabilities for contingencies, equity-based compensation, estimates for sales returns and related allowance, loyalty rewards, deferred revenue, and measurement and realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, or Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606. Revenue is recognized when, or as, control of a promised product or service transfers to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring those products. Revenue excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties, including sales and indirect taxes. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps:

1.Identification of the contract with a customer;
2.Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
3.Determination of the transaction price;
4.Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
5.Recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.

Sources and Timing of Revenue

The Company's revenue is derived from product sales through its e-commerce websites and to Wholesale customers who sell the products to end users. In addition, the Company derives revenues from Company-operated store locations, and franchise and license agreements. Revenues from the sale of products and merchandise are recognized when control of the product passes to the customer, typically at the date of delivery of the merchandise to the customer and in an amount that reflects the expected consideration to be received in exchange for such goods. As such, customer orders are recorded as deferred revenue prior to delivery of products. As the Company ships high volumes of packages through multiple carriers, it is not practical for the Company to track the actual delivery date of each shipment. Therefore, the Company uses estimates to determine which shipments are delivered and recognizes revenue based on these estimates at the end of the period. Delivery date estimates are based on average transit times calculated based on factors such as the type of carrier, the fulfillment source, the delivery destination and historical transit time experience. Actual shipping times may differ from the Company's estimates. Costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer are expensed as incurred and are generally not significant.

Revenues from Company-operated stores are recognized when payment is tendered at the point of sale as the performance obligation has been satisfied. Store revenues are reported excluding sales, use or other transaction taxes that are collected from customers and remitted to taxing authorities.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue consists of amounts billed to or received from customers prior to delivery of products. The Company recognizes such amounts in revenues as the product is delivered.

Table of Contents

Gift Cards

Gift cards are offered through the Company's e-commerce websites through the form of an e-certificate. Gift cards can also be purchased from our Outposts. When a gift card is purchased, the Company recognizes a corresponding liability for the full amount of the gift card, which is recorded in "Deferred revenue and gift card liability" on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Gift cards can be redeemed on the Company's website and in person at Outpost locations. When a gift card is redeemed, the Company reduces the corresponding liability and recognizes revenue. There are no expiration dates to the gift cards. While the Company will continue to honor all gift cards presented for payment, the Company may determine the likelihood of redemption, based on historical experience, is deemed to be remote for certain cards due to long periods of inactivity. In these circumstances if the Company also determines there is no requirement for remitting balances to government agencies under unclaimed property laws, unredeemed card balances may then be recognized as breakage income, which is included in "Revenue, net" on the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

Loyalty Rewards Program

In August 2020, BRCC established its BRCC Loyalty Points rewards program (the “Loyalty Program”), which is primarily a spend-based program. BRCC customers who establish an online account are enrolled in the Loyalty Program. Under the program, there are multiple levels in which customers can participate and earn loyalty points. Subscription customers (customers in the BRCC Coffee Club or subscribed to another subscription product type) are in the highest tier and earn 5% on purchases. Non-subscription customers earn 1% on purchases. Any customer who spends $200 or more annually can also earn 5% on purchases, after the spending criteria is met. In addition to earning points on purchases, customers can earn points through certain other activities. BRCC reserves the right in its sole discretion to modify, change, add, or remove activities which can be accomplished to earn points at any time. Under the Loyalty Program, customers may redeem rewards as they reach minimum thresholds per reward. The Company reserves the right to modify, change, add, or remove rewards and their points thresholds at any time. Conversion of rewards are non-changeable after redemption, have no cash value, and are non-transferable. A portion of rewards are expected to expire and not be redeemed and will be recognized as income over time. Based on historical expiration rates, the Company estimates a certain percentage of rewards to expire and reassesses this estimate on a quarterly basis.

The Company defers revenue associated with the points earned through purchases that are expected to be redeemed, net of estimated unredeemed loyalty points. When a customer redeems an earned reward, the Company recognizes revenue for the redeemed product and reduces the related deferred revenue liability. The deferred revenue liability is included in "Deferred revenue and gift card liability" on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Until March 2024, BRCC loyalty points expired if there was no account activity (i.e., if there is no new purchase made or order placed) for a period of twelve months. In March 2024, BRCC amended the Loyalty Program such that BRCC loyalty points expire after twelve months without consideration of account activity. The change in BRCC's Loyalty Program points policy resulted in a reduction to the deferred revenue liability and an increase to revenue in our Direct to Consumer Channel of $5,686 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as a result of changes in the amount of loyalty points that BRCC estimates will be redeemed.

For those points that are earned through other activities, the Company recognizes the redemption of these points as a discount to the transaction price at time of sale. Refer to Note 7, Deferred Revenue and Gift Card Liability for information about changes in the current portion of deferred revenue and gift card liability for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

Franchise Store Revenues

Franchise rights may be granted through franchise agreements that set out the terms of the arrangement with the franchisee. The franchise agreements require that the franchisee remit continuing fees to the Company as a percentage of the applicable store’s revenues in exchange for the license of the intellectual property associated with BRCC’s brands. A portion of these fees are dedicated for national marketing campaigns, promotional programs and materials, and other activities that we believe enhance the image of the BRCC brand. Continuing fees represent a portion of the consideration the Company receives under the franchise agreement. Continuing fees are typically billed and collected weekly. Continuing fees are recognized as the related store sales occur. Revenues from continuing fees are included in "Revenue, net" on the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

Under the franchise agreements, BRCC sells products and equipment to its franchisees. The revenue associated with these product and equipment sales are recognized when control passes to the franchisee, typically at the date of delivery of the merchandise to the franchisee and in an amount that reflects the expected consideration to be received in exchange for such goods.

The franchise agreements also typically require upfront franchise fees such as initial fees paid for the execution of a franchise agreement. The fees associated with these agreements are typically billed and paid when a new franchise agreement becomes effective. The Company has determined that the services it provides in exchange for upfront franchise fees, which primarily relate to pre-opening support, are highly interrelated with the franchise right and are not individually distinct from the ongoing services provided to the Company’s franchisees. As a result, upfront franchise fees are recognized as revenue over the term of each respective franchise agreement, generally 10 years. Revenues for these upfront franchise fees are recognized on a straight-line basis, which is consistent with the franchisee’s right to use and benefit from the intellectual property associated with BRCC's brands. The current portion of revenues from upfront franchise fees are included in "Deferred revenue and gift card liability" and the long-term portion of revenues from upfront franchisee fees are included in "Other non-current liabilities" on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

License Revenues

License rights may be granted through license agreements that set out the terms of the Company’s arrangement with the licensee. The Company’s license agreements require that the licensee remit continuing fees to the Company as a percentage of the applicable store’s revenues in exchange for the license of the intellectual property associated with BRCC’s brands. In addition, licensed store revenues consist of product sales to the licensee. The revenue associated with these product sales are recognized when control of the product passes to the licensee, typically at the date of delivery of the merchandise to the licensee and in an amount that reflects the expected consideration to be received in exchange for such goods. Continuing fees are recognized as the related store sales occur.

The Company’s license agreements also typically require upfront license fees such as initial fees paid for the execution of a license agreement. The fees associated with these agreements are typically billed and paid when a new license agreement becomes effective. The Company has determined the services it provides in exchange for upfront license fees, which primarily relate to initial license set up and are not individually distinct from the ongoing services it provides to its licensees. As a result, upfront license fees are recognized as revenue over the term of each respective license agreement, generally 10 years. Revenues for these upfront license fees are recognized on a straight-line basis, which is consistent with the licensee’s right to use and benefit from the intellectual property. Revenues from continuing fees and upfront license fees are presented within “Revenue, net” on the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates revenue by sales channel. The Wholesale channel includes product revenue sold to an intermediary and not directly to the consumer. The Direct to Consumer channel is principally comprised of revenue from our e-commerce websites and subscription services directly to the consumer. The Outpost channel includes revenue from Company-operated stores, gift cards, franchise stores and licensing.

The following table disaggregates revenue by sales channel (dollars in thousands, unaudited):

Three Months Ended September 30,Nine Months Ended September 30,
2024202320242023
Wholesale$63,655 $61,527 $177,844 $151,534 
Direct to Consumer29,044 32,794 91,628 104,160

Total net sales$98,204 $100,536 $285,613 $275,974 

Substantially all revenue is derived from customers located in the United States. One wholesale customer and its affiliate represented 29% and 28% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. One wholesale customer and its affiliate represented 29% and 26% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Sales Returns and Discounts

The Company’s product sales contracts include terms that could cause variability in the transaction price for items such as discounts, credits, charge backs, or sales returns. Accordingly, the transaction price for product sales includes estimates of variable consideration to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue recognized will not occur.
13

Table of Contents

The Company inspects returned items when they arrive at its processing facilities. The Company refunds the full cost of the merchandise returned if the returned item is defective or the Company or its partners have made an error, such as shipping the wrong product. If the return is not a result of a product defect or a fulfillment error and the customer initiates a return of an unopened item within 30 days of delivery, for most products the Company refunds the full cost of the merchandise less the original shipping charge and actual return shipping fees. If the customer returns an item that has been opened or shows signs of wear, the Company issues a partial refund minus the original shipping charge and actual return shipping fees. Bagged coffee and rounds are not eligible for returns. Revenue is recorded net of estimated returns. The Company records an allowance for returns based on current period revenues and historical returns experience. The Company analyzes actual historical returns, current economic trends and changes in order volume and acceptance of its products when evaluating the adequacy of the sales returns allowance in any accounting period. The allowance for sales returns and charge backs was $530 and $244 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and included in "Accounts receivable, net" on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs

Shipping and handling is considered a fulfillment activity, as it takes place prior to the customer obtaining control of the merchandise, and fees charged to customers are included in net revenue upon completion of the performance obligation.

Segment Information

The Company reports operations as a single reportable segment and manages the business as a single-brand consumer products business. This is supported by the operational structure, which includes sales, product design, operations, marketing, and administrative functions focused on the entire product suite rather than individual product categories or sales channels. Our chief operating decision maker reviews financial information on a consolidated basis and does not regularly review financial information for individual sales channels, product categories or geographic regions that would allow decisions to be made about allocation of resources or performance.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold includes product costs, labor costs, occupancy costs, outbound shipping costs, handling and fulfillment costs, credit card fees, and royalty fees, and is recorded in the period incurred.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents also include proceeds due from credit card transactions with settlement terms of less than five days. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances with financial institutions that exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances, and it believes credit risk to be minimal.

Restricted cash relates to amounts that are held by former lenders to secure certain commercial credit obligations until such obligations have been satisfied.

Accounts Receivable, Net

Accounts receivable consist primarily of trade amounts due from business customers at period end. Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts and do not bear interest. From time to time, the Company grants credit to business customers on normal credit terms. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon its business customers’ financial condition and payment history, and its historical collection experience and expected collectability of accounts receivable. The allowance for doubtful accounts receivable was $636 and $496 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Inventories, Net

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, which approximates First In, First Out ("FIFO"), and net realizable value. The Company records inventory reserves for obsolete and slow-moving inventory. Inventory reserves are based on inventory obsolescence trends, historical experience and application of the specific identification method. Inventories were $50,210 and $56,465 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Finished goods includes allocations of labor and occupancy expenses, and inbound transportation costs.

Table of Contents

Property, Plant and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment are stated at cost with depreciation calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets or the term of the related finance lease, whichever is shorter. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the term of the related leases or estimated useful lives. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are derecognized, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in earnings for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; significant renewals and improvements are capitalized.

Estimated useful lives are as follows:

Estimated Useful Lives
Land
Building and Leasehold improvements
5 - 39 years
Computer equipment and software
3 years
Machinery and equipment
5 - 15 years
Vehicles
5 years

Identifiable Intangibles - Internal Use Software

In accordance with ASC 350-40, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, Internal-Use Software ("ASC 350-40"), the Company capitalizes qualifying internal use software costs that are incurred during the application development stage if management with the relevant authority authorizes the project, it is probable the project will be completed, and the software will be used to perform the function intended. Capitalized internal use software costs are reported in property and equipment on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and are amortized over the expected economic life of three years using the straight-line method once the software is ready for intended use. Costs incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional significant functionality are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the enhancement. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation activities, including training and maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Capitalized software costs net of accumulated amortization are included as a component of "Property, plant and equipment, net" on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and identifiable intangible assets, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate the carrying value of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of the asset or asset group from the expected future undiscounted pre-tax cash flows of the related operations. If these undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the related asset, an impairment is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over its fair value.

Leases

The Company leases certain property and equipment under non-cancelable finance and operating leases which expire at various dates through 2043. The majority of our leases are operating leases for our Company-operated Outposts. We also lease distribution, warehouse, and corporate office facilities. We do not enter into material lease transactions with related parties. We categorize leases as either operating or finance leases at the commencement date of the lease. Operating lease agreements may contain tenant improvement allowances, rent holidays, rent escalation clauses and/or contingent rent provisions. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for together as a single lease component for underlying classes of assets. The Company has estimated that the lease term for retail stores is generally 10 years to 15 years.

We recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability for each operating lease with a contractual term greater than twelve months at the time of lease inception. We do not record leases with an initial term of twelve months or less on our consolidated balance sheet but continue to record rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our leases often include options to extend or terminate at our sole discretion, which are included in the determination of the lease term when they are reasonably certain to be exercised.

15

Table of Contents
Our lease liability represents the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. We cannot determine the interest rate implicit in each of our leases. Therefore, we use market and term-specific incremental borrowing rates. Our incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest we expect to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms. We considered a combination of factors, including the rates that we currently pay on our lines of credit, lease terms and the effect of adjusting the rate to reflect the term consideration of collateral.

Total lease costs recorded as rent and other occupancy costs include fixed operating lease costs and short-term lease costs. Our real estate leases may require we pay certain expenses, such as common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and other executory costs, of which any fixed portion would be included in operating lease costs. We recognize operating lease costs on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. A significant majority of our leases are related to our Company-operated Outposts, and their related costs are recorded within "General and administrative" expenses on the unaudited consolidated statement of operations.

The ROU asset is measured at the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, initial direct costs, and any material tenant improvement allowances reasonably certain to be received. For operating leases, ROU assets are reduced over the lease term by the recognized straight-line lease expense less the amount of accretion of the lease liability determined using the effective interest method. For finance leases, assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of the leased asset or the lease term. Interest expense on each finance lease liability is recognized utilizing the effective interest method. ROU assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets. Additionally, we monitor for events or changes in circumstances that may require a reassessment of one of our leases and determine if a remeasurement is required.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, and deferred tax assets ("DTAs") and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. DTAs and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the DTA will not be realized. The Company records interest and penalty expense related to income taxes as interest and other expense, respectively.

The Company evaluates and accounts for uncertain tax positions using a two-step approach: Step 1. Recognition – occurs when the Company concludes that a tax position, based solely on its technical merits, is more-likely-than-not to be sustainable upon examination. Step 2. Measurement – determines the amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. Derecognition of a tax position that was previously recognized would occur when the Company subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more likely-than-not threshold of being sustained.

Equity-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes the cost of equity-based compensation awards and incentive unit awards based on the fair value estimated in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Stock Based Compensation ("ASC 718"). The Company records equity-based compensation expense for awards with only a service based vesting condition based on the fair value of such awards at the grant date and recognizes compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Equity-based compensation expense for awards with market based vesting conditions is recorded based on the fair value of such awards at the grant date and recognized on an accelerated basis over the requisite service period. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value of equity awards granted are evaluated and revised, as necessary, to reflect the Company's historical experience and current market conditions. For more information, see Note 10, Equity-Based Compensation.

Earnings per Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to Class A Common Stock by the weighted-average shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding without the consideration for potential dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share represents basic net loss per share adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of outstanding unvested share awards, and units of Authentic Brands designated as common units (the “Common Units”) and restricted units (the “Restricted Common Units”) in the Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement of Authentic Brands (the "LLC Agreement") that are exchangeable into shares of Class A Common Stock. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to Class A Common Stock by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock method and if-converted method, as applicable. As the impact of these if-converted securities is generally antidilutive during periods of net loss, the diluted net loss per share calculation for periods with net losses is the same as the basic net loss per share. For more information, see Note 13, Net Loss per Share.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company’s assets that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk are cash and accounts receivable. Cash balances are maintained in financial institutions which at times exceed federally insured limits. The Company monitors the financial condition of the financial institutions in which its accounts are maintained and has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The accounts receivable of the Company are spread over a number of customers, of which two customers accounted for 55% of total outstanding receivables as of September 30, 2024 and three customers accounted for 55% of total outstanding receivables as of December 31, 2023. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations as to the financial condition of its customers and creditors with respect to trade accounts.

Marketing and Advertising Expenses

The Company’s marketing and advertising expenses are primarily internet marketing expenses, commercial sponsorships and advertising time slots. Marketing expenses are recognized as incurred based on the terms of the individual agreements, which are generally, but not limited to: a commission for traffic driven to its websites that generate a sale, programmatic targeting advertisements, national television and radio advertisements, or payments to social media influencers. The Company may also enter into marketing service agreements with third party production and content providers where the Company prepays for certain services or deliverables and recognizes the expense when the service is completed. Prepaid marketing and advertising expenses totaled $6,685 and $6,826 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. This includes $6,129 of prepaid advertising as of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, in connection with a transaction whereby prepaid advertising was received by BRCC in exchange for finished goods inventory and revenue was recognized for the amount of prepaid advertising credits received. For more information, see Note 5, Other Assets.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable and accounts payable are representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of variable rate long-term debt is based upon the current market rates for debt with similar credit risk and maturity, which approximated its carrying value, as interest is based upon the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), or the PNC Base Rate (see further explanation of the Base Rate in Note 8, Long-Term Debt), or prior to our August 2023 refinancing, the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield (“BSBY”) or Prime rates plus an applicable floating margin. In measuring fair value, the Company reflects the impact of credit risk on liabilities, as well as any collateral. The Company also considers the credit standing of counterparties in measuring the fair value of assets.

The Company uses any of three valuation techniques to measure fair value: the market approach, the income approach, and the cost approach in determining the appropriate valuation technique based on the nature of the asset or liability being measured and the reliability of the inputs used in arriving at fair value.

The Company follows the provisions of ASU No. 2022-03- Fair Value Measurements ("Topic 820") for non-financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis.

17

Table of Contents
The inputs used in applying valuation techniques include assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (i.e., assumptions about risk). Inputs may be observable or unobservable. The Company uses observable inputs in the Company’s valuation techniques and classifies those inputs in accordance with the fair value hierarchy established by applicable accounting guidance, which prioritizes those inputs. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement).

The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had no Level 3 financial assets or liabilities.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company has no components of comprehensive income and comprehensive income (loss) is equivalent to net income (loss) in each of the periods presented. As such, no statement of comprehensive income (loss) is presented.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

There were no new Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements.

5.Other Assets

During the third quarter of 2023, we entered into a contract whereby we agreed to exchange finished goods inventory for prepaid advertising which must be used within four years from the contract date, for a stated contract price of $41,565. During the first quarter of 2024, we entered into amendments to the contract under the same terms for an incremental stated contract price of $6,735. We measured the noncash consideration using the standalone selling price of finished goods sold to distributors, which was 84% of the stated contract price.

During the third quarter of 2024, we agreed to exchange additional finished goods inventory for prepaid advertising for a stated contract price of $4,420. Using the standalone selling price of finished goods sold to wholesale customers, the contract value was reduced by approximately $539.

Revenue and corresponding prepaid advertising is recognized based on the standalone selling price as the products are delivered. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we recognized $42,352 and $28,901 of other assets on our consolidated balance sheet, respectively. Based upon the period over which we expect to use these advertising credits, we concluded that $6,129 were current as of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and have been recorded as prepaid and other current assets on our consolidated balance sheets, and $36,223 and $22,772 were non-current and have been recorded as other assets on our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 respectively. We recognized $3,316 and $15,220 of revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and we recognized $7,480 of revenue for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, on our consolidated income statement related to shipments of inventory in exchange for prepaid advertising under these contracts.

Deferred purchase incentive

During the second quarter of 2024, we entered into an agreement with a co-manufacturing partner for the manufacture and distribution of rounds. As part of this agreement we received a purchase incentive of $9,500 to compensate for incremental transition costs. An amendment to this agreement was entered into during the third quarter of 2024 whereby an additional purchase incentive of $4,000 was received. This purchase incentive will be recognized as a reduction of cost of sales based on units sold over five years. Recognition of this fee commenced during the third quarter of 2024 based upon the terms of the related agreement (as amended). $2,047 of the deferred purchase incentive is classified as current at September 30, 2024 based upon the amount expected to be recognized in the next twelve months, while $10,737 is classified as long-term and is recorded in other non-current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2024.

ABL Facility and Term Loan Facility

On August 10, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), Authentic Brands and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent (“PNC”), and the lenders from time to time party thereto, pursuant to which the lenders thereunder agreed to provide the Borrowers with a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $75,000 (including a sub-facility for letters of credit in an amount up to $7,500 all of which is available at September 30, 2024) (the “ABL Facility”), and a Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement” and together with the ABL Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”) with Whitehawk Capital Partners LP, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto, pursuant to which the lenders thereunder provided the Borrowers with senior secured term loans on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount of $50,000 (the “Term Loan”) and a bridge loan in the amount of $6,000 (the “Bridge Loan” and together with the Term Loan, the “Term Loan Facility”).

The proceeds of the Term Loan were issued net of a $1,525 discount which was recorded against the outstanding amount of debt on our consolidated balance sheet and amortized over the life of the Term Loan Credit Agreement. Debt issuance costs of $4,545 were incurred in connection with the origination of the ABL Facility and these costs will be reported as a reduction to the outstanding balance of long-term debt on our consolidated balance sheet and amortized over the life of the ABL Credit Agreement. The Bridge Loan incurred a Bridge Loan fee of 10% of the aggregate amount of the Bridge Loan on the Closing Date. The Bridge Loan fee was paid when the Bridge Loan principal was repaid in the fourth quarter of 2023.

The obligations under the Credit Agreements are guaranteed by each Borrower and each Borrower’s direct and indirect, existing and future domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions (collectively, the “Guarantors” and each, a “Guarantor”). The obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on certain deposit accounts, cash and cash equivalents, credit card payments, accounts receivable, inventory and other related assets of the Guarantors (the “ABL Priority Collateral”) and a second priority lien on substantially all of the other assets of the Guarantors. The obligations under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are secured by a second priority lien on the ABL Priority Collateral and a first priority lien on substantially all of the other assets of the Guarantors.

Each Credit Agreement includes certain conditions to borrowings, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default customary for financings of their type and size. Each Credit Agreement requires the Borrowers to maintain (i) consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreements) of at least $(2,460) for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023, which amount increases incrementally over the next 15 quarters to $40,000 for the 5 fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2028; (ii) a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.10 to 1.00, based on a trailing four fiscal quarter calculation, following the Availability Block Release Date (as defined below); (iii) minimum liquidity of at least $15,000, which amount is reduced to $7,500 following the Availability Block Release Date; and (iv) minimum average liquidity of at least $9,375 following the Availability Block Release Date. The Credit Agreements also limit the Borrowers’ ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create liens on any assets, pay dividends or make certain restricted payments, make certain investments, consummate certain asset sales, make certain payments on indebtedness, and merge, consolidate or engage in other fundamental changes.

Under the terms of the ABL Credit Agreement, the amount available for advances is subject to a borrowing base, which is calculated by reference to the value of certain eligible deposit accounts, cash and cash equivalents, credit card payments, accounts receivable and inventory, offset by certain reserves. The amount available for advances will be reduced by $15,000 until the Borrowers have maintained a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.10 to 1.00 based on a trailing four fiscal quarter calculation for two consecutive fiscal quarters following the Closing Date and no defaults or events of default are then continuing (the date such condition is satisfied, the “Availability Block Release Date”). PNC may also reduce the amount available for advances upon certain findings or if PNC determines, in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable business judgment, that such reductions are necessary for other purposes. Our available borrowing under the ABL Credit Facility at September 30, 2024 was approximately $9,438, after consideration of the $15,000 reduction required before the Availability Block Release Date. During the first quarter of 2024, our available borrowings fell below $15,000 which resulted in cash dominion under the terms of the ABL Credit Agreement whereby certain proceeds must now be collected into a separate account which are subsequently applied against our ABL borrowings until such time as our available borrowings are $15,000 or the occurrence of the Availability Block Release Date, whichever is first.

Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum of either (i) the Base Rate (as defined below) plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.00% or (ii) term SOFR plus a margin ranging from 2.60% to 3.10%, in each case subject to a 0.25% reduction following the Availability Block Release Date. “Base Rate” means, for any day, the base commercial lending rate of PNC as publicly announced to be in effect from time to time. The Borrowers are also required to pay certain fees in connection with the ABL Credit Agreement, including an unused commitment fee based on the average daily unused portion of the ABL Facility, equal to 0.375% on an annual basis.

Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either (i) a base rate plus 7.50% or (ii) term SOFR plus 8.50%. The base rate and term SOFR rate are subject to floors of 4.00% and 3.00%, respectively.

The ABL Facility matures on the earlier of (i) August 10, 2028 and (ii) the date that is 91 days prior to the scheduled maturity date of any other debt in excess of $2,500, subject to certain exceptions.

The Term Loan Facility requires the Borrowers to make quarterly principal repayments in an aggregate principal amount equal to (i) 1.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2024 through the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2025, (ii) 2.50% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2025 through the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2026, and (iii) 3.125% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2026 through the maturity date of the Term Loan. The Term Loan Facility is also subject to mandatory prepayment (x) to the extent the outstanding obligations under the Term Loan Facility exceed a borrowing base calculated by reference to the value of certain eligible intellectual property, equipment and real property, offset by certain reserves, and (y) of up to 50% of the Borrowers’ excess cash flows beginning in 2026. The Borrowers may voluntarily prepay amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility at any time, subject in certain cases to a prepayment premium.

The Term Loan matures on the earlier of (i) August 10, 2028 and (ii) the date that is 91 days prior to the scheduled maturity date of any other debt in excess of $2,500, subject to certain exceptions.

Notes Payable

In July and September 2021, the Company entered into note payable agreements for $2,588 at an interest rate of approximately 1.00% per annum to repurchase Incentive Units (as defined below) from former employees. The notes are payable in four annual installment payments. As of September 30, 2024, the total outstanding balance on these notes payable is $646.

In January 2022, the Company entered into a note payable agreement for $1,599 at an interest rate of 1.30% per annum to repurchase Incentive Units from a former employee. As of September 30, 2024, the outstanding balance on the notes payable is $800.

9.Stockholders’ Equity

In conjunction with the Business Combination, 18,769 class A common units and 73,890 class B common units of Authentic Brands (the holders thereof, the "Existing Members") were converted into an aggregate of 139,106,323 common units in Authentic Brands (the “Common Units”) and 19,853,125 restricted common units in Authentic Brands (the “Restricted Common Units”). The Existing Members also received 139,106,323 shares of Class B Common Stock of the Company.

Subsequent to the Business Combination, the Company's authorized capital stock consists of 2,802,500,000 shares including (i) 2,500,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) 300,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, (iii) 1,500,000 shares of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Class C Common Stock"), and (iv) 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"). The Class C Common Stock is divided into two series as follows: (a) 750,000 shares of Series C-1 Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share; and (b) 750,000 shares of Series C-2 Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

Holders of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock are each entitled to one vote per share, and holders of the Class C Common Stock do not have any voting rights. Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of our Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends and other distributions as may from time to time be declared by the our board of directors at its discretion out of legally available Company assets, ratably in proportion to the number of shares held by each such holder, and at such times and in such amounts as the board of directors in its discretion may determine. No dividends or other distributions will be declared or paid on the Class B Common Stock or the Class C Common Stock.

A holder of Class B Common Stock may transfer or assign shares of Class B Common Stock only if such holder also simultaneously transfers an equal number of such holder’s Common Units in compliance with and as permitted by the LLC Agreement.

In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, after payment of debts and other liabilities and after the rights of holders of preferred stock, if any, have been satisfied, the holders of all outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock will be entitled to receive the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution ratably in proportion to the number of shares held by each such stockholder.

The board of directors of the Company may establish one or more classes or series of preferred stock. Our board of directors may determine, with respect to any class or series of preferred stock, the terms and rights of such class or series. The Company currently does not have any preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Common Units are entitled to share in the profits and losses of Authentic Brands and to receive distributions declared and have no voting rights. Holders of Common Units receive one share of Class B Common Stock, which are voting, non-economic shares in the Company, for each Common Unit they own. Subject to the terms of the LLC Agreement, the Common Unit holders have the option to redeem all or any portion of their Common Units. However, upon redemption, the Company's board of directors determines whether the Common Units are redeemed in cash or Class A Common Stock.

Common Units that are redeemed for shares are exchanged for a number of Class A Common Stock equal to the number of exchanged Common Units. Simultaneously, a number of Class B Common Stock held by the unitholder is surrendered equal to the number of Common Units being redeemed. For Common Units redeemed for cash, cash redemption may only be effected if a concurrent fundraising activity takes place by the Company.

Non-Controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests represent the ownership interests in Authentic Brands held by holders other than the Company. As of September 30, 2024, BRC Inc.’s ownership percentage in Authentic Brands controlling and non-controlling interests was 36.0% and 64.0%, respectively.

10.Equity-Based Compensation

Incentive Units

Authentic Brands' maintains an equity incentive plan (the “2018 Equity Incentive Plan”) under which it granted Incentive Units (as defined in the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan) to employees or non-employee directors prior to the Business Combination. As of September 30, 2024, 8,472 Incentive Units remain outstanding under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, and no new Incentive Units have been granted under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan since the completion of the Business Combination. The board of directors has the authority to determine the terms and conditions of each grant under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, and 200,000 non-voting units have been authorized thereunder. These units may contain certain service and performance related vesting provisions. The Incentive Units were awarded to eligible employees and non-employee directors and entitle each grantee to receive non-voting member units upon vesting, subject solely to the employee’s continuing employment or the non-employee director’s continuing service on the board of directors.

The following table summarizes the changes in the number of Incentive Units for the nine months ended September 30, 2024:

Incentive UnitsWeighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Granted and outstanding at January 1, 20248,585 $213.81 
Granted  
Forfeited(113)215.31 
Granted and outstanding at September 30, 2024
8,472 $213.79 
Vested at September 30, 2024
7,125 $213.50 

As of September 30, 2024, total unrecognized equity compensation expense related to nonvested Incentive Units to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately one year was $200.

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company adopted the 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Omnibus Plan"), which replaced the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, and the 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP") (see disclosed below).

Stock Options

The Company grants stock options to employees under the Omnibus Plan that vest ratably over three years and expire after seven years. The grant date estimated fair value of the stock options is based upon a Black Scholes model valuation of the options at the grant date. The following weighted average assumptions were utilized in determining the fair value of options granted:
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024
Weighted average grant date fair value$2.21
Expected dividend
Expected volatility66%
Risk-free interest rate4.32%
Options term (in years)4.5

The computation of expected volatility is based on a weighted average of comparable public companies within the Company’s industry. The Company uses the "simplified method" prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment, to calculate the expected term of options granted. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities of comparable terms. The Company does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company recognizes pre-vesting forfeitures as they occur rather than estimate the forfeiture rate at the grant date.

As of September 30, 2024, total unrecognized equity compensation expense related to stock options to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately two years was $8,799.

Restricted Stock Units

The Company grants restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards to employees and non-employee directors under the Omnibus Plan that vest annually over approximately three years. The grant date fair values are based on the closing price of the Class A Common Stock of the Company on the date of grant.

The following table summarizes information about the RSUs under the Omnibus Plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2024:

As of September 30, 2024, total unrecognized equity compensation expense related to RSUs to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately two years was $8,515.

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units

On December 29, 2022, the Company granted 8,462,412 performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) to a key employee which vest if certain market capital growth rates are achieved each year through April 2027. Vested PSUs are settled in shares of the Company Class A Common Stock equal to the number of PSUs granted. The PSUs are forfeited upon termination of employment before the performance period ends. PSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2022 have a weighted-average grant date fair value of $0.46 per share. All PSUs were unvested as of September 30, 2024. The Company used the Monte Carlo pricing model to estimate the fair value of PSUs utilizing the following assumptions at the grant date:

Expected dividend
Expected volatility65%
Risk-free interest rate3.97%
Award term years4.3
Valuation date share price$6.21

As of September 30, 2024, total unrecognized equity-based compensation expense related to PSUs to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately three years was $1,180.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In September 2022, the Company began offering shares of its Class A Common Stock under its ESPP adopted in connection with the Business Combination, whereby eligible employees may acquire an equity interest in the Company through payroll contributions. At the end of a six-month offering period, shares are purchased at 85% of the stock price at enrollment date or purchase date, whichever is lower.

On September 8, 2024, the Company issued 78,287 shares for a total of $260 under the March 9, 2024 ESPP period, which covered the period between March 9, 2024 and September 8, 2024.

11.Defined Contribution Plan

The Company maintains a voluntary qualified defined contribution plan covering eligible employees as defined by the plan documents. Participating employees may elect to defer and contribute a portion of their eligible compensation to the plan up to limits stated in the plan documents, not to exceed the dollar amounts set by applicable laws. The Company’s matching contributions to the plan were $227 and $844 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $150 and $661 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

12.Income Taxes

BRC Inc. is the managing member of Authentic Brands and, as a result, consolidates the financial results of Authentic Brands. Authentic Brands and its subsidiaries are limited liability companies and have elected to be taxed as partnerships for income tax purposes except for a subsidiary, Free Range American Media Company, which is taxed as a corporation. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. Any taxable income or loss generated by Authentic Brands is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including BRC Inc., generally on a pro rata basis or otherwise under the terms of the Authentic Brands LLC Agreement. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income taxes, in addition to state and local income taxes with respect to its allocable share of any taxable income or loss of Authentic Brands, as well as any stand-alone income or loss generated by BRC Inc.

The Company’s U.S. federal and state income tax returns for the tax years 2019 and beyond remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. With respect to state and local jurisdictions, the Company and its subsidiaries are typically subject to examination for several years after the income tax returns have been filed. The Internal Revenue Service has commenced an examination of the Authentic Brands’ U.S. income tax return for 2021. We anticipate this audit will conclude within the next twelve months. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties have been provided for in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for any adjustments that may be incurred due to state or local audits and uncertain tax positions. The Company’s income tax expense may vary from the expense that would be expected based on statutory rates due principally to its organizational structure and recognition of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets.

Our effective tax rate for the period ended September 30, 2024 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to changes in the valuation allowance and non-controlling interest.

Based primarily on our limited operating history and Authentic Brands' historical losses, the Company believes there is a significant uncertainty as to when the Company will be able to use our deferred tax assets ("DTAs"). Therefore, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance against the DTAs for which the Company has concluded it is more likely than not that they will not be realized.

13.Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to Class A Common Stock by the weighted-average shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding without consideration for potential dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share represents basic net loss per share adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of outstanding unvested share awards, warrants, Common Units and Restricted Common Units that are exchangeable into shares of Class A Common Stock. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to Class A Common Stock by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock method and if-converted method, as applicable. Shares of Class B Common Stock do not participate in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted loss per share of Class B Common Stock under the two-class method has not been presented.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except unit/share and per unit/share amounts, unaudited):

14.Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Agreements

The Company has entered into manufacturing and purchase agreements to purchase and produce coffee product from third-party suppliers. These purchase agreements are typically obligations to purchase minimum volumes with fixed pricing if the volume terms are not fulfilled, in the form of a take-or-pay provision. The aggregate value of purchases from these third-party suppliers totaled $10,638 and $32,400 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $12,253 and $75,116 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

The amounts in the table below represents the Company's future minimum purchase commitments as of September 30, 2024 (dollars in thousands, unaudited):

202732,427 
202815,141 
Thereafter14,934 
Total$124,279 

Contingencies

The Company is the subject of various legal actions in the ordinary course of business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, property damage, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief. With respect to such lawsuits, the Company accrues reserves when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Although the outcomes of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe any of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, would be expected to have a material adverse effect on results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

The Company could be subject to additional sales tax or other tax liabilities. The Company follows the guidelines of ASC 450, Accounting for Contingencies, and the unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect the current impact of such legislation through the Company’s best estimates. However, any of these events could have a material effect on the Company’s business and operating results depending on the previous periods of applied enforcement by certain jurisdictions.

The Company is also subject to U.S. (federal and state) laws, regulations, and administrative practices that require us to collect information from its customers, vendors, merchants, and other third parties for tax reporting purposes and report such information to various government agencies. The scope of such requirements continues to expand, requiring us to develop and implement new compliance systems. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations could result in significant penalties and interest which might have an adverse effect on the Company’s business and operating results. The Company has accrued $320 related to potential sales and other tax exposure as of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, which is included in accrued liabilities on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

Legal Disputes

On April 28, 2022, Tang Capital Partners, LP (“Tang Capital”) filed a lawsuit in federal district court in the Southern District of New York against the Company, Tang Capital Partners, LP v. BRC Inc., Case 22-CV-3476 (RWL) (Southern District of New York). The complaint alleges that Tang Capital suffered damages arising from the Company’s refusal on two occasions to permit Tang Capital to exercise warrants. On March 8, 2023, the court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss a claim for declaratory judgment but denied the Company’s motion to dismiss Tang Capital's breach of contract claim. Each party filed respective motions for summary judgment and completed the briefing of these motions on May 31, 2024.

Overview

Black Rifle Coffee Company is a rapidly growing Veteran-led premium coffee and media company that operates through three channels: Wholesale, Direct to Consumer ("DTC"), and our Outpost Retail Stores. Our business started with a loyal and quickly expanding community of consumers through our DTC channel, which benefits from approximately 194,000 subscribers as of September 30, 2024. We have experienced recent declines in this channel as our points of distribution have expanded in other channels and consumers find the brand where they shop. Focused growth in our Wholesale channel continues as we have expanded into grocery stores, club stores, specialty stores, and other intermediaries. Our Outpost channel experienced growth through 2023 during the initial rollout of our Outpost retail stores; however, we anticipate limited growth in this channel in 2024 as we evaluate our strategy for retail stores, and we expect to recommence investment in this channel in future years.

At Black Rifle Coffee, we develop our roast profiles with the same mission focus we learned as military members serving our country. We produce creative and engaging cause-related media content to inform, inspire, entertain, and build our community. We also sell Black Rifle Coffee-brand apparel, coffee brewing equipment, and outdoor and lifestyle gear that our consumers proudly wear and use to showcase our brand. At the heart of everything we do is our commitment to supporting active duty military, Veterans, first responders, and those who love America.

We utilize a three-pronged approach to craft a unique brand that resonates with our customer base and enhances brand loyalty: Inform, Inspire, and Entertain. We want our audience to love coffee as much as we do, so we strive to inform them on all the awesome facets of coffee. Every day we work to inspire our customers; we take pride in the coffee we roast, the Veterans we employ and the causes we support. We give back to the community and are committed to support those who serve.

To support our premium quality product, our coffee beans are primarily roasted in-house at our Tennessee based roasting facility and 100% in the United States to ensure consistency and quality of product. Our coffee beans are sourced only from the highest quality suppliers. Our state-of-the-art equipment guarantees freshness and offers significant capacity for expansion.

We are a digitally native brand with an established omnichannel business model, reaching our customers through one reportable segment that is comprised of three channels. Our Wholesale channel includes products sold to an intermediary such as grocery stores, including the Food, Drug, and Mass ("FDM") customer set, specialty retailers, such as outdoors and sporting goods retailers, and convenience stores, which primarily sell our Ready-to-Drink ("RTD") products. Our DTC channel includes our e-commerce business, through which consumers order our products online and products are shipped to them. Our Outpost channel includes our Company-operated and franchised Black Rifle Coffee retail coffee shop locations.

Revenue decreased to $98.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $100.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, representing a decrease of 2% compared to prior year, driven primarily by a $3.8 million decrease in our DTC channel and a $0.7 million decrease in our Outpost channel partially offset by a $2.1 million increase in Wholesale revenues. Revenue increased to $285.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $276.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, representing growth of 3%, compared to the prior year driven by a $26.3 million increase in Wholesale revenues, partially offset by declines of $12.5 million and $4.1 million in our DTC and Outpost channels, respectively.

The Business Combination

In February 2022, we completed the Business Combination and as a result of the consummation of a series of mergers in connection therewith, Authentic Brands became a subsidiary of BRC Inc., with BRC Inc. acting as the sole managing member thereof as a public benefit corporation. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and a recapitalization of Authentic Brands. Accordingly, the Business Combination was reflected as the equivalent of Authentic Brands issuing stock for the net assets of SilverBox, accompanied by a recapitalization. Under this method of accounting, SilverBox is treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. The net assets of SilverBox are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. This accounting treatment was determined by the individual controlling Authentic Brands prior to the Business Combination, who also controls the combined company post Business Combination.

Trends

Certain trends affecting our business within the respective sales channels are as follows:

Wholesale channel revenue has increased as we have added new customers and we continue to grow our presence in the FDM market. We expect to see increased revenue within this channel as we increase investment to obtain new customers, launch new products, and expand in the FDM market.
DTC channel revenue growth has declined as a result of a decline in the DTC market as well as our decision to redirect investments to other growing areas of the business as we continue to experience elevated DTC customer acquisition costs. In addition, we have limited our promotional offerings while focusing on profitability.
Outpost channel revenue has decreased due to declining volumes at our existing Outpost retail locations. We anticipate limited growth in this channel in 2024 as we shift investments into other channels while we work to improve the quality of our earnings through operational and strategic changes, some of which might result in store closures for underperforming Outposts. We expect accelerated growth in the Outpost channel in future years as we recommence investment in this part of our business.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

Our Ability to Increase Brand Awareness

Our ability to promote and maintain brand awareness and loyalty is critical to our success. We believe we have created a highly efficient marketing strategy that provides us the ability to increase brand awareness and drive consumer interaction. Consumer appreciation of our brands is primarily reflected in the increase of our sales across our three channels over the last few years. We expect to continue to develop and implement forward-looking brand strategies that utilize highly efficient, reach-based formats such as national television, streaming advertising, and other select avenues. In addition, we will leverage our social media footprint and employ targeted digital advertising to expand the reach of our brand.

Our Ability to Grow Our Customer Base in Our Outposts and Wholesale Channels

We are currently growing our customer base through our Wholesale channel. Our products are also sold through a growing number of physical retail channels. Wholesale customers include large national retailers, regional retailers, distributors, and dealers.

Our Ability to Acquire and Retain Customers at a Reasonable Cost

We believe our ability to consistently acquire and retain new customers at a reasonable cost will be a key factor affecting our future performance. We continue to have a strong presence activating in major markets to reach new consumers and drive brand awareness. As we continue to expand our deployment venues, our expertise in digital creative and engagement provides a distinct advantage to reach, engage and convert our consumers. We will continue to utilize marketing measurement to ensure our advertising and marketing spend is effective and efficient while expanding our brand reach and managing customer acquisition cost and returns on marketing investments.

Our Ability to Drive Repeat Usage of Our Products

We gain substantial economic value from repeat users of our products who consistently re-order our products. The pace of our growth rate will be affected by the repeat usage dynamics of existing and newly acquired customers.

Our Ability to Expand Our Product Line

Our goal is to continue to expand our product line over time to increase our growth opportunity and reduce product-specific risks through diversification into multiple products each designed around daily use. Our pace of growth will be partially affected by the cadence and magnitude of new product launches over time. We realized All Commodities Volume ("ACV") of 47% at September 30, 2024. Moving forward, we believe that it is important to our business that we continue innovating with new products and flavors.

Our Ability to Manage Our Supply Chain

Our ability to grow and meet future demand will be affected by our ability to properly plan for and source inventory from a variety of suppliers and co-manufacturers located inside and outside the United States. The majority of our green coffee beans come from Colombia, Nicaragua, and Brazil, and since 2020, we have also sourced green coffee beans from over ten countries in Latin America, Africa, and Asia to diversify our supply chain and offer our customers specialty and limited-time-only roasts. Quality control is also a critically important part of our manufacturing and supply chain operations. 100% of our coffee is roasted in the United States. Our licensed, Coffee Quality Institute-certified grader and former Green Beret, leads cupping, grading, scoring, and sourcing of our coffees. We also must effectively manage our co-manufacturers and suppliers.
